I moved to a new building and noticed, the Wired Network connectivity was under performing (Wireless speed is as expected - 250 Mbps).
On further investigation I found the connection from the Patch Panel to the wall socket of the room(I'm working on) was not correct. The Ethernet wiring is not correct. Please check the attached drawing.
My question is How is this connection working at all? Because both the pairs 1,2 and 3,6 are wrong. Only 4 and 5 are correct. I am receiving speeds upto 100Mbps (both Downlink and Uplink).
My guess is - My PC having gigabit Ethernet port is using the the pair 4,5 for data Tx and Rx, and that is the reason why my speed is limited to 100 Mbps. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Any thoughts on how it works is appreciated.
